From Engineer to Marathoner: Qiang Tian’s Remarkable Paris 2024 Olympic Journey

He’s done it again! Qiang Tian, P.E., PTOE, one of our Senior Traffic Engineers, took on the incredible challenge of the Paris 2024 Olympics Mass Participation Marathon! Running purely for the love of the sport and the thrill of competition, Qiang has added another impressive achievement to his marathon record, having previously completed races in Chicago, Boston, London, and New York.

Qiang ran the same iconic route as Olympic athletes. With dedication, determination, and countless hours of training, Qiang finished the marathon in an impressive 3:03:30.

For the first time in Olympic history, amateur athletes were invited to participate alongside the world’s best, and Qiang seized this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. We couldn’t be prouder to see him pushing boundaries not only in his work but also in his personal endeavors.

Check out these amazing moments captured as Qiang ran through the stunning streets of Paris.
